[Opening]
[Am]I was [C]only ten years [G]old
[Am]Like the back of [C]my hand knew the [G]roads
I [Am]swerved my bike and [C]lost control, [G]over the handles [D]in the air
A [Am]lady who came [C]walking by [G]found me lying there [D]
And the nurse at the hospital said
[verse 2]
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don’t be scared
Now your [G]father is waiting [C]in the next room
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don’t be sad
Now your [G]mom’s on her way, you’ll be [C]out of here soon, [D]hmm-mm
[Am]Mmm [C] [G]hmm,[D]hmmm, [Am]mmm [C]hmm [G] [D]
[verse 3]
[Am]We drove so [C]slowly through these [G]streets [D]
[Am]In the [C]suburbs of our [G]dreams, [D]hmm-mm
At [Am]night my father [C]closed
his eyes, he [G]saw the new car [D]in the drive
My [Am]mother standing [C]in the doorway,
[G]Friday night, a [D]smile on her face
And the voice I can hear in my head
[verse 4]
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don’t be scared
Now you [G]know we’ll be sleeping [C]in the next room
[Em]Little boy, [Am]don’t be sad
Now [G]tomorrow is as it is [C]coming around soon, [D]hmm-mm
[Am]Mmm [C] [G]hmm,[D]hmmm, [Am]mmm [C]hmm [G] [D]
[verse 5]
We [Am]only need a [C]little space
Just [G]somewhere we could [D]call our place
My [Am]mother standing [C]in the doorway
[G]Friday night, a [D]smile on her face
[verse 6]
[Am]These things always [C]start so small
With [G]no applause and [D]no drum roll
And [Am]I came running [C]up the hallway
[G]See the car turn [D]in the driveway, hmm-hmmm
[Closing]
[Em]Mmm [C]hmm [G]
And I’ll [D]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
And I’ve [D]always been that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
Yeah, I’ll [D]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
And I’ll [D]always be that [Em]little boy [C] [G]
